<p>[QUOTE="henley hanley, post: 9929327, member: 88491"]As best as I have learned from owning about 50 of these DePorceleyneFles and Westraven tiles, is that the DPF tiles can be dated thusly: Prior to WW2, Joost Thooft's initials, JT, were embossed inside the iconic jug. Post-war, they are outside/below the jug, BUT there are some commemorative tiles made just after the war that do have his initials still inside the jug. Also, due to prohibitive cost-of-production, DPF ceased producing these tiles in 1977.[/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
